The present invention relates to a monoclonal antibody to human thrombopoietin (TPO), to a method for the purification of TPO which comprises isolating TPO from a TPO-containing material by affinity chromatography using the antibody, and to a method for the immunochemical quantification or detection of TPO using the antibody. Various types of human TPO molecules can be purified, detected or quantified by use of the anti-TPO monoclonal antibody. |
